Times Square crash: 5 still hospitalized, but teen goes home
NEW YORK — A New Jersey high school senior and another person mowed down by a driver on a Times Square sidewalk were released from hospitals Tuesday, but five other victims are still hospitalized, school and hospital officials said.
The patients include one of the New Jersey student’s own classmates.
A Michigan teen was killed, and 22 other people were injured, when a driver who told police he was high on drugs plowed through a pedestrian-packed sidewalk for three blocks Thursday before hitting a barrier.
Among the injured were Destiny Lightfoot and Jessica Williams, both students a month from graduating from New Jersey’s Dunellen high school.
